Montessori Journey, Home

Welcome to The Montessori Journey

The Montessori Journey is a family run centre located in the beautiful bayside suburb of Wynnum – approximately 15 kilometres from Brisbane’s CBD. We opened our doors to the children and their families on the 29th of January 2002. We hope that the information will help you get started on your path to choosing the school that is best for your family.

Our Montessori centre has three cycle one classrooms set up to provide a quality educational program for children aged from 3 to 6 years of age. Our Centre offers full and part-time positions, We offer a free transitional period, the timing and approach of which will be discussed with you upon enrolment.

Our Centre is very proud to have been nominated for the award in Education Training and Tuition in the bayside area which we have been a finalist or have won this award since 2002 to date. We were also put in the Hall of Fame for our achievements.

Our other proud moments have been:

2010 The centre was asked to take part in the pilot program in the Early Learning Framework which is the new system being implemented in the Early Childhood sector throughout Australia.

2010 The centre was nominated and chosen to take part in the Television commercial, radio, posters and brochures for the Queensland Government for the new Kindergarten program. This was quite an experience for all our families, children and staff. First viewing of the commerical was March 2011

One of the things that make our Centre different from others in the area, is our application of the Montessori program. We offer children a strong foundation for the preparation for their lives ahead. We run a challenging curriculum in a peaceful environment. We strive to offer not only a joyful educational experience for the children, but a supportive school community for the entire family. Our aim is to create a special learning environment that is child-centred and adult-guided where the atmosphere is orderly and calm. Our environment is one where children feel confident to explore and attempt new skills without fear of judgment or failure.

The Montessori Method uses specialised materials and a philosophy that nurtures the spirit of the child.
